New vivo Y51 announced with Snapdragon 665 SoC, AMOLED screen, and 48MP quad camera

Back in December 2015, vivo unveiled the Y51 with Snapdragon 410 SoC, 5" display, 8MP primary camera, and a 2,350 mAh battery. Today, vivo announced the new Y51, which is powered by the Snapdragon 665 SoC, runs Android 10-based Funtouch OS 10 and has 4GB RAM and 128GB expandable storage onboard.

The new vivo Y51 is built around a 6.38" FullHD+ Ace AMOLED display that has a fingerprint reader underneath and a notch up top for the 16MP selfie camera.

Around the back, you have a diamond-shaped plate housing four cameras - 48MP primary, 8MP ultrawide, 2MP macro, and 2MP depth sensor. These are joined by an LED flash, and further below is a text that reads "Camera & Music".

Fueling the entire package is a 4,500 mAh battery that draws power through a USB-C port at up to 18W.

All this might sound familiar to you because the new vivo Y51 isn't an entirely new smartphone. It's a rebranded X50 Lite announced a few months ago, or you can also call it a rebadged S1 Pro with a 16MP selfie camera since the colorways of both smartphones are identical.
